these times than any other branch of 
the provincial government. A few

of the splendia shape of the tele-

tremendous ‘sum is owing the de-

hundreds of telephones have been 
taken out, many rural lines have 
been so reduced that they are now

Two farmers from Wembley,

tribution in the House of Commons 


last autumn, plainly pointed out that 
they were not government holdings. 
The government supplied the credit 
so that John I. McFarland, the man- 
ager of the Canadian Wheat’ Pool, 
could conduct operations necessary 
to ensure a market for last year's 
crop. The government's contribu- 
tion, the premier explained, lay in 
guaranteeing the banks against loss 
and he was careful to point out that 
the profit belonged to the Selling 
Agency, and not to the government. 


It should not be overlooked that, 


those who delivered wheat to the 
1930 pool, a considerable portion of 
which was used in stabilization op- 
erations, contributed materially to 
the successful operation of thé plan. 
This point has certainly not been 
dwelt upon in the many discussions 
centering around these wheat hold- 
ings.
